WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. —

Police in West Palm Beach are looking for a man who robbed a 64-year-old disabled man after helping him off a county bus.

Capt. David Bernhardt said the incident happened Nov. 2 as Thomas Painter was getting off a PalmTran bus in the 500 block of 38th Street. Bernhardt said the man offered to help Painter home.

Bernhardt said as the two approached Painter's front door, the man asked him for $5.

"He says, 'I don't have any money,'" Bernhardt said. "The suspect, not liking the information, I don't know what he tells him, decides to get it himself, so he reaches into the guy's pocket (and) takes the wallet. Here's a guy who's in a wheelchair, and he takes advantage of him."

Police are asking for the public's help in identifying the man.

Painter said he let his guard down and he hopes police find the man who robbed him.
